Washing versus Washing up

[Tom]

Hi Tom

I asked Jamie to explain give yourself a hairdo in more detail, so when I said "That's what I call" I meant "That's my definition of".

I was playing with the word do. My reference was to hairdo and "do" meaning a form of entertainment --- because I found the hairdo in Jamie's last picture particularly entertaining and tidy.

Hi Tamara

I love the picture.

I know you're not Pamela. But after Pamela's response about "brainwashing", I wanted her to refer back to what you had written before I posted "I did my hair". I had assumed your comment indirectly referred to another thread in which the "doing of hair" was mentioned...
